Ladies, Look at the SIZE of My Closet!

Germans don't do closets at all. It used to be that they'd be taxed for the number of rooms in their houses, and closets counted as a room. So now they almost always use big amoires. I like mine -- it has five doors and is really long. When I have a walk-in closet, things tend to get all out of order and messy, and after a while I won't even be able to get to the back of the closet! But with my armoire, it's so shallow that even if there's a mess on the floor of it, I can still get to the hanging things just fine.

I just started cleaning out my walk in closet which has essentially become a shove-all-the-stuff-that-I-don't-have-a-place-for closet. This will take hours because there is so much stuff in there that I haven't seen in years. I am looking forward to being able to walk into my walk in closet.

I want a walk-in closet. I'm sooo jealous right now.

In the city, I had two closets: one in my bedroom and, for some odd reason, one in my kitchen (I think it was a passageway to another room at one point but was made into a closet when the brownstone was converted to apartments). I felt very fortunate indeed!

My grandma's house (which my cousin & her family now live in)had closets like this. You could get to every room on the top floor just by walking through the closets...it was neat.

I have the top 1/2 of a duplex and I have a huge walk-in, a bathroom closet, a coat closet and a pantry. And the walk-in has shelves that actually hold all my shoes. I don't know how I survived at my last place with one regular-size closet & 2 dressers.

My apartment is bursting with closets, and it's a mid-size studio. It's a pre-most wars building, built in 1880 - I've got a huge built in wardrobe (cabinet up top, about 5 ft of closet, then three deep drawers), a coat closet bigger than the one at my mom and dad's house, a pantry closet in my kitchen (which I use for cleaning supplies), and a gigantic closet in my living/sleeping area from where the Murphy bed used to be. I also have two 4-ft high china cabinets in the corner of my dining room...I love it, I have more storage than I know what to do with! This was a huge factor in me taking this apt. over another one, even though this one is up 4 very long flights.

I used to have a walk-in closet. Now, I just have this BURSTING tiny closet and a grip of stuh in my storage, along with 1.5 closets at my Mom's house.
